[Unlike some of the quieter members, there's really nowhere on the Caprine that you CAN'T run into Pinkie Pie. If she's not in the engine room maintaining the engine or tinkering with some crazy new contraption, she'll be in the kitchen baking or popping in to see if anybody wants to chat.

And if she's not onboard, she's probably visiting one of the other ships, or down on the planet, sporting a pretty cute gas mask, shopping for local, not-gel-based foods and ingredients, and trying to see if she can get some intel about the pollution thing for Steve... whenever she's not too distracted.

About a week or so into her tenure, though, there'll be a text sent to all of her crewmates' communicators.]

Hi, guys! Pinkie Pie here!

I was thinking since I'm new and some of you guys are too, I wanna get to know you more! And this survey will REALLY help me keep track of stuff, especially when special occasions come around! Feel free to fill it out when you've got a free moment! You can either text me back, write me a note, or find me and tell me yourself! I LOVE talking with my friends!

[Yay, first answer to her survey~ There are a couple of things on there that could use some clarification on, and it's always nice to chat with a buddy, so off to the bridge Pinkie goes!]

Heya, Poe~

Re: Action

[helluva_pilot]

[He's just relaxing at the controls, keeping an eye on things. Not anything interesting happening, though.]

Hey, Pinkie. What's going on?

[spontaneouscombustion]

Not much! Just wanted to ask you a couple questions about the query I put out!

[helluva_pilot]

Sure, shoot. [Well, he thought he answered it thoroughly, but apparently not. Damn.]

[spontaneouscombustion]

[Oh no, he was QUITE thorough, but some of the terms are a little foreign to her is all. And calendar calculation time~]

Sweet! So, if caf and potato sticks are coffee and fries, what's a spiceloaf?

[PINKIE NO, don't ask that one!]

[helluva_pilot]

Oh, sure. It's ground m--

[Wait. Finn said Pinkie's the one that doesn't eat meat and. Uh. Awkward.]

--nuts and veg. Savory. And you can make it as hot as you want, to order.

[spontaneouscombustion]

Oooh that sounds really good; I LOVE spicy stuff! Can't wait to try it out~

[...It'll probably... end up turning into a really spicy stuffing unless she switches to not!tofu, but gosh darnit she'll try!]

[helluva_pilot]

Hey, great! I like spicy food too. I've really missed it. Military rations are pretty bland and I used up my last bottle of spice sauce a while ago.

[spontaneouscombustion]

Well, you're in luck, I found this GREAT one on the moon here!

[And she pulls the bottle out from... nowhere on her person how does she do that?]

TADA~! Auntie Zarlock's Seven Pepper Naga Scorpion Ghost-Maker Sauce!

[helluva_pilot]

[Okay, that's kind of weird.]

How did you --

[Okay, but hot sauce.]

That sounds... pretty awesome.

[spontaneouscombustion]

It is~! Although you miiight wanna be careful; Finn was sorta spiced-out when he tried it!

[She figures humans must have delicate taste buds, but really she just has a near superpony spice tolerance.]

[helluva_pilot]

[He has to stop to think about it for a minute, but it makes sense. He doubts Finn's ever had anything to eat but the military slop the First Order created for its stormtroopers. Not big on taste, he imagines.]

Don't worry. I got a tougher tongue than Finn.

[spontaneouscombustion]

Ooooh you're a saucy guy, aren't you~! Heehee should I get some chips or do you wanna put it on the cupcake?

[helluva_pilot]

[....istheponyflirtingwithhim

Just roll with it, Dameron.]

I've got a reputation. [He winks at her.] Ah... chips would be better. I don't mix my hot sauces and my desserts.

Though you know. There are some kinds of spices that are really good with some sweets, I think.

[spontaneouscombustion]

[Nah, she just likes alliteration and wordplay. She only flirts with stone statues. Gotta work on that game, Cheese Sandwich.]

Oh I know, right! There's this one store in Las Pegasus that covers some of their candy in chili powder! Sometimes I try making some myself, but there's not a HUGE demand so I save 'em for special occasions!

[helluva_pilot]

Okay, now you've got me all intrigued, and I want to try 'em. Can you even get that kind of stuff around here, though?

[spontaneouscombustion]

Oh, sure! The ship can make chili powder, and candy making's a piece of take! All you really need is water, sugar, and flavorings!

[helluva_pilot]

Oh, huh.

Uh... maybe you could show me some time? I haven't cooked in... forever. Not since I joined the New Republic Starfleet.

[spontaneouscombustion]

Oh my gosh, yes! Baking and cooking are the best, I was REALLY glad the ship has a full kitchen!

[helluva_pilot]

Yeah, last real kitchen I was in was back home at my dad's place.

So... how do you cook? [Is there a sort of circumspect way to point out someone doesn't have thumbs?]

[spontaneouscombustion]

Pretty well, if I do say so myself! I live and work at a bakery bake home!

[helluva_pilot]

[That isn't what he meant. Awkwardly, he wiggles his fingers.

Can you even ask someone why they don't have thumbs? Is that a thing?]
